Bitcoin research & analysis

We treat Bitcoin as the reserve asset the rest of our coverage builds on: Bitcoin layers like Stacks pay their yield in it, and Strategy has made it the collateral behind STRC, a preferred stock that pays a monthly dividend. The risk we watch most closely is a deep, lasting fall in the Bitcoin price that forces Strategy to sell coins to keep STRC paid, which our STRC model measures every night.
